Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at Benchmark Fitness for nearly five years, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. The coaches are amazing, and the community is second to none. It’s the best decision I’ve made and I’d recommend it to anyone.
Fantastic experience: I joined Benchmark in March and it’s the best decision I’ve made. The coaches are so friendly and are always there to give you help and advice (in and out of sessions). Everyone at Benchmark is so friendly and welcoming, which makes for such a nice atmosphere at the gym.
Fantastic experience: Started off with a 6 week challenge and have singed up for the yearly programme. Can't recommend this place enough. Great structure , coaches and atmosphere. Held accountable to your goals and always supported. Have a run club every Thursday and and created a great group for running, everyone comes out to support !
Fantastic experience: Very friendly team!
Fantastic experience: Benchmark is a small group with best results. I will recommend to everyone . Enjoy us . Thank you
Fantastic experience: You will never regret joining benchmark!!. It was the best decision I made 5 years ago and I've never stuck at anything this long before, as I found gyms so intimidating and lost interest quickly. If you want a supportive, focused but friendly environment where the coaches actually care and will help you get the results you want, then I'd really recommend benchmark. I've not only gained fantastic results but an extended friendship circle that supports me continously.
Fantastic experience: The best gym around with great coaches who always hold you accountable. I've been a member for over a year and a half now and the support in that time has been incredible. I joined to lose some weight and now the coaches also have me running three times a week with their run club and preparing for Hyrox in Dublin. Great social events as well, theres always something happening at Benchmark! The results speak for themselves but couldn't recommend Benchmark enough!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic gym. Coaches keep you accountable and are always very encouraging towards your personal goals. It’s a very supportive environment and it is a real community of people who want to see each other do well.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, Great Coaches and the best gym community
Fantastic experience: I joined benchmark last July and haven’t looked back! The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, with people of all ages and backgrounds. It is different to gyms I’ve been to in the past with a focus on consistency rather than a quick fix. The coaches are knowledgeable, encouraging and take an interest in their members well being. I would recommend anyone considering to join to give it a try!

Fantastic experience: I joined benchmark fitness with the zoom classes over lockdown really enjoyed them as that came to an end Jordan encouraged me to join the gym which I did in November I am really enjoyed it didn’t think at my age I would ever go to a gym but I’m glad I did. Jordan and Michael our both great they look after you really well and push you when they know you can do it they is always a big of crack in the gym which I enjoy gives you a wee lift the other members our all lovely everyone is so friendly I feel a lot better and fitter than I even did before and it’s all thanks to Jordan and Michael
Fantastic experience: Excellent team, excellent setup. The team are really sound, personal performance focused and generally really helpful and focused on keeping me right and getting where I need to go. They also do loads of regular non-gym things with their social events, running club and stretch/movement, HIIT and matwork sessions that they sort out all as bonus extras on top of the membership for everyone. As I say great team of PT's and a great way to run a positive and enjoyable gym!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at benchmark for around 4 months now and couldn’t recommend it enough to anyone else to start. The lads are great at what they do and the work outs are top class and the craic is just as good.
Fantastic experience: "I've been attending Benchmark Fitness for over a year now, and I can confidently say it has been a game changer in my attitude towards fitness and well-being. Each gym session lasts 45 minutes, and I have my own personal trainer who holds me accountable in my fitness routine and goals. The coaches and members create a family-like environment with social days, a running club, and many other events. I would highly recommend Benchmark Fitness to anyone looking for something better than the typical gym, where you look forward to each session, train hard, and make new friends."
Fantastic experience: What a gym! The coaches and the people makes this a warm and welcoming place to achieve your fitness goals. I joined after having 2 kids and I have never felt better in myself! Start with the 6 week challenge and you'll not want to leave. Can't recommend them enough :)
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym and coaches
Fantastic experience: Great small, private gym. Coaches there give you individual attention & encouragement. Friendly non-intimidating sessions for all ages & fitness levels. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Before training at benchmark I would enter the gym go straight go the treadmill and stay way clear from the weight session. Benchmark has helped me over the years because it has taught me that I can still achieve my goals and live life. The atmosphere in the gym is always amazing and the encouragement from not only the coaches but the members is amazing.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: I joined this gym hating any kind of exercise after many failed attempts at PTs, small group sessions and commercial gyms. Through encouragement, support, and holding me accountable when I felt like quitting, the lads helped me find the joy in exercising to feel good, not just lose weight. Honestly, can't thank or recommend them enough! Felt like a different person by the end of my 6 week challenge! Perfect for anyone at any level of fitness or stage in your journey to become your best version of you.
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend Benchmark Fitness to anyone. The coaches are top class and are always there for support. The sessions are 45 minutes and are really well thought out - if there’s something you can’t do the coaches will change it to make it suitable for your goals and your abilities. The atmosphere is great, everyone is so friendly and welcoming and it’s not intimidating as most gyms can feel (especially if you’re new to the gym). If you’re thinking about joining then go for it, you’ll not regret it!
Fantastic experience: Professional, knowledgeable & friendly team who provide encouragement, support and motivation. I really enjoyed the 6-week challenge and would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Really welcoming and motivating gym. I have seen great results physically but even better results mentally. The coachs are amazing.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of benchmark for 3 months and completed addicted! The coaches are friendly, supportive, knowledgeable and always there to push you to do your best without being intimidating. The 45 min sessions are so well planned out that they fly by and going to the gym no longer feels like a chore. recommend for anyone keen to build muscle, lose weight or get fitter!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Benchmark Fitness! I joined Benchmark in November 2022 for a 6 week programme and decided to keep going. Great atmosphere in the gym and the classes are very fun & enjoyable. The coaches are very knowledgeable and are constantly pushing you to progress. The programmes are always getting updated so the training does not become repetitive. It’s such a welcoming gym and would recommend anyone who is thinking about joining to bite the bullet and join! You won’t look back!
Fantastic experience: I joined benchmark a few months ago and I am really enjoying it! The coaches are supportive and push you to improve every time. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to start their fitness journey!
Fantastic experience: Have been going to this gym for over a year now and absolutely love it! The coaches and facilities are excellent. I have tried many commercial gyms before and never stuck at it but Benchmark is different, it’s such a nice, welcoming atmosphere! The coaches keep you accountable and the members become your friends. It has helped me in many ways- physically and mentally. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: It’s honestly been amazing training with these guys, the session layouts, the atmosphere and the gym overall has been like nothing else I’ve experienced. I always tend to give up or get bored but really but I’ve really enjoyed attending each one. Jordan and Michael are super friendly and attentive. Very easy to talk to also
Fantastic experience: I'm on week 5 of a 6 week course. Absolutely love the training. All 3 trainers Jordan, Michael and Connor are amazing. They really make everyone feel included, they explain things really well and are more than welling to help you during classes. I like the fact that there are only 10 people max in each training session. I would thoroughly recommend Benchmark Fitness.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic gym. It’s a really welcoming environment for a newbie coming in as everyone - including the coaches - is so friendly and there are people of all ages, shapes, and abilities in the sessions. It’s been a long time since I’ve actually looked forward to training but I feel like that after just a month at a Benchmark.
Fantastic experience: Did a taster 6 weeks. Signed up for a year. These guys know what they’re doing. They’re very skilled in making sure you’re being pushed but not broken! Very supportive. And all the attendees are friendly too which is great.
Fantastic experience: A brilliant gym with fantastic coaches! I joined Benchmark in Nov 2022 and it's been one of the best decisions I've made. The coaches Jordan, Michael and Conor are top class - always encouraging and pushing you to be better. They also offer a flexible approach to nutrition which is realistic and attainable and provide plenty of education about it. I would highly recommend Benchmark Fitness to anyone. If you're looking to become a fitter, healthier, more motivated version of yourself- then Benchmark is perfect for you!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym to train at, no judgment from anyone! Constant support and always someone to ask questions to! the classes offer such a variety so there’s no gym boredom and I can already see results after a short period of time in my body and confidence!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Benchmark fitness. I started off with the 28 day challenge, and quickly joined as a full member. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere, that pushes you to progress with your own individual needs. I love that all abilities and fitness levels are training together. Coaches are always encouraging you to progress at a pace that works for you. After 2 years of very little activity, I was nervous about going back to the gym but felt completely at ease from the first day. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Small group training gives the right balance of having guidance 100% of the way without feeling in the spotlight.
Fantastic experience: Been training here for just over 4 months and is the best gym experience I’ve had! Small group sessions keep you focused and on plan, coaches are friendly, experienced and encouraging. The coaching helps you improve weekly and results show quickly. Always a great atmosphere during sessions, and regularly updated training plans keep things fresh but familiar. Would recommend to anyone looking to start a gym but worried about how to do it.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant training facility with great coaches.
Fantastic experience: I recently joined Benchmark Fitness Belfast and I am absolutely loving it! The small group personal training format is perfect for me as I get the personalised fitness instruction and support in a group setting, providing the benefits of both one-on-one training and the motivation and camaraderie of working out with others. If you're looking for a high-energy, supportive environment with experienced trainers and truly passionate about helping their clients reach their fitness goals.l this is the gym for you. I appreciate the variety of classes offered, and the fact that they are always challenging and fun. The facility is clean, well-equipped, and provides a welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend Benchmark Fitness Belfast to anyone looking for a top-notch gym experience. #benchmarkfitnessbelfast #smallgrouppt #bestgymever

Fantastic experience: Benchmark fitness is excellent. In only a few months I have seen an increase in my strength and fitness. As someone who would never get round to going to the gym myself and wouldn't even know what to do when I got there, the group sessions are a great motivator. The coaches are very knowledgeable and helpful.
Fantastic experience: I started with the 6 week training programme to kick start my journey to being healthy again. The trainers are super friendly and knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: Benchmark puts the fun back into training. The PTs are helpful, encouraging abd professional. Their enthusiastic approach is motivating and creates a comfortable environment which helps me on to achieve results.
Fantastic experience: Overall i would highly recommend Benchmark Fitness. I haven't been to a gym in years and never been to any class type training so i was slightly sceptical before starting the 6 weeks challenge but the 3 lads Conor, Mick & Jordan are brilliant. The 1 on 1 coaching they give is unbelievable and given i didn't know much in terms of weight lifting, squats etc i feel i have greatly improved my knowledge and technique. They don't judge but always support and push you in a good way. They check in with via whatsapp and are on hand if i have any questions regarding nutrition etc. The friendly environment and changing programmes ensure you keep engaged and I have lost weight and feel a lot fitter as a result. Lastly their spotify playlists have a fantastic range of beats to get you going during an early session.
